Text

We analysed the simulated data using Cox and logistic regression models with genotype and baseline age included as covariates in the model. The Cox model was fitted using the time-on-study time-scale in both the cohort and case-cohort simulations. In the case-cohort setting, Prentice weights and robust SEs were used for the Cox model to account for the sampling process.11, 12 Logistic regression in case-cohort studies applied directly to the cases and the subcohort non-cases gives asymptotic inference of odds ratios.11 Each simulation scenario was repeated 5000 times. The P-values were calculated using Wald tests.
